History

The Voice of Louisiana Agriculture Radio Network has a long history in the state of Louisiana.  Our network has been in existence for 40 years, beginning as the Louisiana Agri-News Network in 1976.  Louisiana Farm Bureau's Regnal Wallace was the founding farm broadcaster on the network.  He was joined in 1987 by Senior Farm Broadcaster, Don Molino.  

We produce a variety of programs that air at the times when farmers need them, with market news, analysis and the latest events in agriculture.

Our network has 21 affiliated radio stations in Louisiana, and is operated by the Louisiana Farm Bureau Federation.

The Louisiana Farm Bureau Federation, founded in 1922, is the state’s largest general farm and ranch organization.
